Friends of the LA River: Habitat Restoration Day & Earth Month Celebration
Sepulveda Basin Wildlife Perserve
Sat, Apr 26 8:00am - 10:30am
At Habitat Restoration Day & Earth Month Celebration, 500 dedicated volunteers will join FoLAR to remove 15,000+ gallons of invasive vegetation, restoring 1 acre of land at the Reserve. Volunteers will then participate in educational activities like a nature walk, making native seed balls, hopping aboard our River Rover mobile museum, and exploring informational tables from community partners. Earth Day Habitat Restore & Renew is free, hands-on, and open to the public and will foster both immediate and long-term health in the LA River Watershed.
Restoring habitat along the LA River has major benefits for the entire watershed. Native plants and wetlands filter pollutants, improve water quality, and recharge groundwater, while providing habitat for wildlife. Green spaces cool surrounding neighborhoods, improve public health, and reconnect communities to the River. A healthier LA River means cleaner water, stronger ecosystems, and a more resilient city for the future.
